Drywall is durable, but it can still be easily damaged. A bump when moving furniture, something knocking into the drywall, or other accidents can cause small and large damage to the drywall. Damage can range from nail holes to large holes that must be repaired quickly. Whenever you need Drywall repair in St Petersburg FL, we can get the job done quickly and correctly, so you won’t be able to tell where the repair was done.
Small or Large Repairs
The type of repair needed depends on the size of the damage. If it’s a small hole, dent, or scratch, drywall paste will be needed to fill in the space and make it level with the rest of the wall. If the hole is larger than a couple of inches wide, it’s going to require a more in-depth repair as wood will need to be added inside the hole for stability. Once the new drywall is placed and screwed to the wood, mud is used to feather the repair to the surrounding wall and remove any cracks or gaps.
Repair Isn’t a DIY Job
Tons of tutorials exist to show home and business owners how to repair drywall on their own. All of these videos make it look incredibly easy. While the steps themselves aren’t necessarily hard, making the repair blend in with the wall is something that requires experience and talent. If the goal is to make the damage completely disappear, it’s necessary to call in drywall repair contractors to do the job. Our contractors can make sure the repair is done right and minimize the ability to tell a repair was ever done.
Finishing a Drywall Repair
Once the hole has been filled, finishing will be needed. The wall is likely painted, so the repair will stick out, no matter how small it is, if it’s not painted as well. If the wall is textured, the repair will need the same texture applied, so it blends in. This can be incredibly difficult for amateurs to do properly. The right paint will be needed as well. Even if the owner knows the color of the paint, depending on how long ago it was done, the paint on the wall could have faded, so fresh paint will stand out. Professionals know how to choose the right finishing touches, so it’s not difficult to see that the repair was done.
